The Park, Friday Afternoon

[uncertain_dume]

Well... that whole week could have gone worse, Kanan supposed. The itching feeling of dread had more or less faded, which left just the lingering bouts of free-floating trauma around the island that was usual in the wake of this sort of thing.

Which meant it was a Friday as usual for training and the like, though today he'd brought Stance, and he'd made his way to the park rather than the warehouse, letting the pup run free to harangue the ducks while he sat himself down under a tree in the shade, and he read more of that book that the moose had foisted off on him.

He didn't necessarily agree with it all, but he could see some of the wisdom behind it all the same.

There were a few practice swords propped up against the tree, in case anybody was feeling up to training or sparring today, but otherwise... eh. He was more or less just taking it easy this afternoon.

With a book.

About a stuffed bear.

"As long as it's not me," Kaidan said immediately.

[uncertain_dume]

"I have no intentions of shooting at you," Kanan said easily.

A pause.

"Not with live ammo, anyway."

All bets were off in the world of water pistols and laser tag.

Kaidan gave him some stinkeye, "I remember the water balloons, jerk."

He wasn't sore, he was more amused about it than anything.

[uncertain_dume]

Kanan's answering smile was positively angelic.

"What, you didn't like that?"

He was innocent! Truly!

Hey, water balloon season was almost back...

Kaidan leaned to bump his shoulder. Not quite a shoulder check but close. "Just wait. Payback's a bitch, my friend, and now Jack's here."

Setting himself up for the inevitable younger sibling gang-up? Yeah. He knew that. "I can recruit her easily enough. She's already invested in ambushing you and throwing things at you and her aim is as good as mine."

"It's still got to actually hit me," Kanan replied, smirking. "All the more reason for me to keep my guard up, isn't it?"

Which, really, wasn't a bad habit to get into anyway.

"All summer long," Kaidan agreed with a small grin. "Maybe I'll hire it out. That cooler keeps spawning water balloons. I could make this my new summer hobby."

Twofer! Attempts to splash Kanan and piously helping Kanan keep his guard up.

"If nothing else, it'll be fun," Kanan mused. "Especially if it's you and Jack on the job."

A pause.

"There'll have to be ground rules, though. No water balloons in my apartment, that sort of thing."

He had to specify this for the sake of Jack's involvement, not Kaidan's.
